Some missions are sanctioned.
Others are personal.
This one could change history.

Winner of the 2023 National Jewish Book Award for Hebrew Fiction in Translation, Operation Bethlehem is a tense, morally charged espionage thriller written by a bestselling Israeli author and former intelligence officer.

What if your only shot at redemption meant risking your life to uncover one of history’s greatest mysteries that is powerful enough to reshape the Middle East?

Set among the sacred stone walls of modern-day Bethlehem, Operation Bethlehem blends high-stakes espionage with the suspense of a rare archaeological mystery. Beneath this ancient city - where every step is tracked, and every motive is suspect - lies a secret no one dares to find.

Daniel, a former Mossad operative haunted by failure and desperate to reclaim his purpose, goes undercover on a dangerous mission of his own. But he’s not alone. Intelligence agencies, terrorists, and covert agents are converging on the same location - each driven by their own agenda.

What begins as a personal quest for redemption turns into a race against time. One wrong move could spark a new war.

Operation Bethlehem isn’t just a page-turning thriller.
It’s a sharp, morally charged story of loyalty, sacrifice, and the hidden cost of protecting Israel.

If you’re a fan of Daniel Silva, Fauda, or novels that explore what happens behind closed doors, long before headlines are written, Operation Bethlehem is perfect for you.

Will Daniel’s search for redemption uncover a lost truth - or ignite a war no one can control?
